General :: Refine The Find Command?
Jul 12, 2010
Ive tried to rsync from one ~/home on hdd a, to ~/home hdd b, using a live cd, but it returns a load of; eg:
rsync: opendir "/media/a2ab9331-effd-4855-8e0a-6c7f1a9d63b5/home/nnjond/.Skype" failed: Permission denied (13)
So i think i should fresh install and it would be convenient if i knew the refined commands to locate the saved files in /home hdd a, since 02_06_10 (not including all the hidden or deleted files), and then copy to a memory stick using the nautilus gui.

Is there a way to specify to find that I only want text files (and not binary files)? Grep has an option to exclude binary files, so I thought find probably has a similar feature, but I've been unable to find it.

I want to scan a particular directory recursively and run a particular command with each file as input. For this I am using "find /dir/path". I dont want to write any long script containing loop on the output of "find". I want a single command which will allow me to run a command on each file of the "find" command output.

I've got a script where I have to parse out the last modified time for a large amount of files. Piping the output for "ls" into "cut" seems to work most of the time, but the output is unpredictable.The "fields" argument doesn't find the date modified columns consistently, and using character count is as well since the output can vary in width depending on the file name

My goal is to find all pdf files on a remote machine, so I resort to the useful command find. So I type find .pdf or find .pdf" and I get nothing. I do the same on my machine and I get nothing. I do a regular search from the menu on my machine and I find quite a few pdf files. Would somebody please tell me what am I doing wrong?

We often require to find an equivalent text command for any GUI operation. Just as an example we click on a folder (say ABC) from the current directory in order to see the contents of that directory. The equivalent command for it to happen would be->
Code:
cd ABC ls Now the thing is that we often don't know what that equivalent command will be. So I want to know that is there any way out to find it. What I want to do is that I shall perform any operation using mouse in the GUI mode(whatever operation it could be) and then I can see a log file to see what I actually did last(rather what the command would have been if I have worked in the text mode)...

If the filesystem is mounted with noatime option does it influence find -atime behaviour? I tested and it looks that find is able to see access time but why should it if mounted with noatime? Or maybe it depends on the type of filesystem (I`m using XFS)?EDIT: Looks the answer is [URL]htmlIf a file system has been mounted with this option, reading accesses to the file system will no longer result in an update to the atime information associated with the file like we have explained above. The importance of the noatime setting is that it eliminates the need by the system to make writes to the file system for files which are simply being read. Since writes can be somewhat expensive, this can result in measurable performance gains. Note that the write time information to a file will continue to be updated anytime the file is written to.

I am writing a bash script which includes the find (and rm command with exec) command the options -mtime -15 or +15 so that files older 15 days must be deleted from the home directory. I think that -mtime +15 should be ok, but in which case does the option -mtime -15 really come in handy?? go back 15 days until today's date?

I am looking for a way to print the timestamp of a directory using find command. I can do that for a file, but for a directory, it is printing the contents of the directory as well. Lets say there is a directory called doc, and there are more than one occurrences of that directory.
find . -name "doc" -type d -exec ls -l {} ;
This is printing the contents of all the files under doc directory as well.
